Abstract:

One in four Baby Boomers fills the informal caregiver role in the United States. The objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence of Baby Boomers who are informal caregivers for people living with dementia and compare their physical and mental health status to caregivers for persons with conditions other than dementia using 2015–2018 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data (N = 10,602). We identified caregiving status (assisting a family member/friend with a long-term illness or disability in the past month, managing personal care, and not caring for a child/grandchild) and

Abstract:

At the Second Canadian Consensus Conference on Dementia (CCCD) (February, 1998), a group of neurologists, geriatricians, and psychiatrists met to consider guidelines for evaluation of dementia in Canada. This review paper formed a background paper for their discussion of dementia diagnosis. These experts from across the country concluded that diagnosis of suspected dementia cases continued to rest on skilled clinical assessment. Mental status exam, preferably in some quantifiable form, has become an essential part of the assessment. Selected laboratory tests are advisable in all cases (CBC, TS

Abstract:

The number and diversity of rating scales and tests of psychiatric status has increased dramatically in the last 20 to 30 years. Tests are in screening, e.g. for dementia the Mini Mental State Examination and the Abbreviated Mental Test; to aid clarification of the diagnosis in difficult cases, e.g. Walton-Black New Word Learning Test, to differentiate between depression and dementia; and in assessing severity of symptoms, e.g. Hamilton Depression Rating Scale.

Abstract Introduction Atypical N3 sleep (AN3=delta waves with limited theta and sigma) has been associated with ICU delirium and sepsis and averaged 25% of sleep time in Japanese ICU patients. We were interested in exploring whether AN3 might be a marker of cerebral dysfunction in ambulatory patients across a range of neurodegenerative disorders, including those with a dementia diagnosis. Methods After ethics review and with informed consent, patients with Lewy body disease (DLB/PDD: n=20,male=90%,age=70 + 6.2), Alzheimers disease dementia (AD: n=29,male=79%,age=75 + 6.7), Parkinson disease (P

This study evaluated changes of cognitive, physical, and nutritional status before and after the interruption and resumption of daycare services during the COVID-19 pandemic in older dementia people in a daycare center. Comprehensive geriatric assessment data were analyzed before and after the lockdown of daycare center services, including mini-mental state examination, activities of daily living (ADL) scores, mini-nutritional assessment-short forms (MNA-SF), and timed up-and-go (TUG) tests. Among 19 dementia people participating in daycare services, 17 participants were enrolled in the study

Abstract Older adults with dementia have reduced physical function; however, whether physical function decline accelerates prior to dementia onset remains unclear. This study compared changes in three objective physical function measures for up to 26 years in 518 older adults who did or did not develop dementia: Time to complete a three-meter walk (Gait), grip dynamometry (Grip strength), and time to complete five functional tasks (e.g., putting coins into a slot) (Fine motor).

Abstract Objective Current brief tests of cognition provide a rough indication of overall cognitive functioning that assist with making gross clinical judgments (e.g., demented vs. not demented). The purpose of the present study was to develop and preliminarily validate a brief tool, The Colorado Cognitive Assessment (CoCA) to facilitate early and accurate diagnosis of mild and atypical presentations of dementia. A related goal was to compare its psychometric properties with The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Method Participants were 150 community dwelling adults over the age of 50 with

Abstract:

Neuropsychological assessment involves the observation and measurement of an individual's behavior in relation to a given stimulus that has been selected for its likelihood to provoke an abnormal response in the presence of neurological damage. This approach incorporates a medical and psychological approach to diagnosis in that both pathology-specific signs and deviations from normal distributions are examined. In the case of Alzheimer's disease (AD), this methodology has assumed considerable importance. This is because behavioral indicators remain the principal basis for provisional diagnosis
